MS CINEMA: Beuys

Thirty years after his death, Joseph Beuys is still considered a visionary and one of the most influential artists of his generation. He is known mainly for his participation in the international movement of Fluxus and his versatile undertakings- from happenings and performances to sculpture, installations and graphics. Beuys's concept of the role of an artist places him at the centre of a social discourse on such subjects as:  media, community or capitalism. The film presents previously unused visual and audio materials, with the help of which the film director- Andres Veiel has created a unique chronicle. Beuys is not a traditional portrait of a well-known character, but an intimate and in-depth look at another person, an artistic expression of another artist’s creativity and the influence he had on the world around us.
